A little cheery ditty from Bertolt Brecht

This came to mind:

The SolutionBertolt Brecht

After the uprising of the 17th JuneThe Secretary of the Writer's UnionHad leaflets distributed in the StalinalleeStating that the peopleHad forfeited the confidence of the governmentAnd could win it back onlyBy redoubled efforts. Would it not be easierIn that case for the governmentTo dissolve the peopleAnd elect another?

Cold and wet outside -- got down to 24� last night and it's 35� and raining heavily.
Perfect climate for a little B.B.
Halfway tempted to put on The Threepenny Opera - Kurt Weill was amazing.
